V and R Home Improvement

Christine G.

I would strongly recommend you DO NOT hire V&R construction. My husband and I moved into our new home in September (and old fixer upper).Joe was hired to finish my basement and remodel my upstairs bathroom. Along with new siding and work to the roof. This experience has been nothing short of horrible!!. The beginning months of construction started off smooth then it became a mess. Issues arose on this job when workers were not listening or uninformed from Joe about specific requests or concerns f. We noticed the workers were not listening to needs, mistakes were made. For instance, they forgot to pitch my new shower and had to redue the bathroom floor. Joe appeared to want to remedy the mistakes then his true nature came out. Joe began asking that the full payment for this large job be paid completely. Since some much works still needed to be complete we agreed a partial payment was satisfactory and the rest to be paid at the end of the completed project. Joe was paid and then went on it became no shows and unreturned phone calls. He left my new bathroom with spots along the flooring without grout , put in a heating system that was too small to heat the size bathroom therefore rendering the heat useless. (50sq ft heater for 200sq ft bathroom) his workers cracked my hardwood floor when putting in the new bathroom door and they left the molding outside the bathroom half falling off and cracked. . The last time Joe or his workers were actually at my home doing work was months ago and since then he had stopped returning calls. I was finally able to contact him today and ask that he come to discuss all the issues that arose in this job. He was disrespectful and argumentative and stormed away saying it could be taken up with a lawyer. Something I have all plans of doing now at this point. I would caution against using V & R construction and working with Joe. I am now left with a bathroom with no heat, and several mistakes. My basement is completely unusable he left it without plumbing and incomplete job. a complete mess. My siding is also incomplete and left without gutters on some parts of the roof. I am so regretful that I hired V&R and worked with Joe. He is untrustworthy, does not listen and obviously does not take pride in his work. Beware and find someone else. I have attached pictures so you can see for yourself the mess that V&R left.

We started on Oct. 17, with timing of our granite install and appliances being delivered, total work took about 3.5 weeks. Within the first week, the kitchen was looking brand new.. all walls resheetrocked, ceiling also done with sheetrock and high hats, gas and water moved and tiles on floor were done. We were now ready for paint... They have someone to paint.. if needed.. but I did that myself. Once the cabinets were delivered, they installed them right away. It took a week to get granite template and install complete. Joe, the owner and his workers were great. They were always on time, neat and respectful. Any issue that came up, it was handled professionally. Joe is honest and his work is so wonderful. I cannot believe how great our kitchen looks!! Joe's pricing is very reasonable. We had 6 estimates before making a final decision. His pricing did not waiver much from the quote.. $8700.. it was a few odds and ends that were incidental, and understandable... Our total came to $8890. We sourced our cabinets, tile, backsplash and appliances ourselves. Joe does have cabinet/tile recommendations.. but we decided to go on our own. Our work was completed on Nov. 9. And it looks incredible. I would hire them again in the future and do not hesitate giving them a high recommendation.
